You aren’t taking out a swarm easily, it will reach whatever goal it intends. Whatever it may be.

I would think the future of defense against drones is directed energy weapons.

An EMP might work, but you then lose all your nearby electronics. Doesn't help for a second wave though. I can't imagine EMPs are easily reusable.

I would be interested to see what a directed energy weapon might look like.
